NFTs are tokens that we can use to represent ownership of unique items. They let us tokenise things like art, collectibles, even real estate. They can only have one official owner at a time and they’re secured by the Ethereum blockchain – no one can modify the record of ownership or copy/paste a new NFT into existence.

NFT stands for non-fungible token. Non-fungible is an economic term that you could use to describe things like your furniture, a song file, or your computer. These things are not interchangeable for other items because they have unique properties.

NFTs are different from ERC-20 tokens, such as DAI or LINK, in that each individual token is completely unique and is not divisible. NFTs give the ability to assign or claim ownership of any unique piece of digital data, trackable by using Ethereum’s blockchain as a public ledger. An NFT is minted from digital objects as a representation of digital or non-digital assets.

An NFT can only have one owner at a time. Ownership is managed through the uniqueID and metadata that no other token can replicate. NFTs are minted through smart contracts that assign ownership and manage the transferability of the NFT’s. When someone creates or mints an NFT, they execute code stored in smart contracts that conform to different standards, such as ERC-721. This information is added to the blockchain where the NFT is being managed.

The whole NFT ecosystem works because Ethereum is decentralized and secure.

Decentralized meaning you and everyone else can verify you own something. All without trusting or granting custody to a third party who can impose their own rules at will. It also means your NFT is portable across many different products and markets.

Secure meaning no one can copy/paste your NFT or steal it.

These qualities of Ethereum makes digitally owning unique items and getting a fair price for your content possible. But it comes at a cost. Blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum are energy intensive right now because it takes a lot of energy to preserve these qualities. If it was easy to rewrite Ethereum’s history to steal NFTs or cryptocurrency, the system collapses.

Enough about the nitty gritties and technical aspect of a NFT. Each Crypto Pookie is unique and programmatically generated from over multiple possible traits, including expression, headwear, clothing, and more.

The adorable animals are stored as ERC-1155 tokens on the Polygon blockchain and hosted on IPFS. Purchasing an animal costs 0.1 ETH.

We strive to achieve an environmental statement by following our roadmap and providing back to the environment to maintain ecological balance. The global carbon emission is at it’s peak and so is the endangerment of some of the rare species. We want to provide not only the community with enriched benifits but also collaborate with global wildlife conservations in order to benifit the endangered wildlife for a better future as you can see from our roadmap. Also we will be planting trees for every NFT that gets purchased from our collection.
